Search Bar with Segmented Control Problem - iphone

I have a search bar and a segmented control that will filter out the different types of results in a table view.
But what im facing is that the segment control bar, goes down whenever i search a result. (Which means i have to scroll down in order to access the segmented bar) I want it to remain right below the search bar. Is that possible?
Any ideas?

Yes it is possible, add the searchBar as subview on top of view then add the segmented as subview of view and finally to show results in a table add the table in subview of main view, thats so simple.

Drop-down list in navigation bar iOS

I want to implement a drop-down list in the navigation bar, which contains all categories such as in this application:
I want to know what its name, and steps to implement it.
You need to place your View underneath the navigation bar but put its position to high so it isn't visible. Then when you press that button use UIViews animations to slide it down. It's that simple and there isn't any special kind of view.
YOu can try something like this also ... https://github.com/kolyvan/kxmenu

How to display buttons under a TableView at the bottom of a screen?

I am trying to build a screen like this:
I've already built the navigationItem (the "title Bar") and the table view, now I'm looking for a way to add the buttons under the table view.
The result should look similar to a tab bar, but as the buttons are used to influence the the number of displayed records in the table, I'm only dealing with one controller.
How do I achieve what I'm looking for?
I can think of two ways off the top of my head you could accomplish something like this.
You could create a UISegmentedControl and place it in your tableview's tableFooterView property. The buttons would only be visible underneath the tableview and would scroll with the table.
You could create a UIToolbar, or ideally display the toolbar you get for free with the navigation controller, and place a UISegmentedControl there. This way the buttons would always be visible regardless of where the user has scrolled to.
Hope this gets you started.
A couple of approaches suggest themselves:
1) You could use an actual tab bar. If you do that, your outermost view controller has to be the UITabBarController. Some searching on "UITableView inside UITabBar" and the like should give you more details.
2) Set the frame of the UITableView to be less than the whole screen. Have both it and the buttons (which might well be a UISegmentedControl) be subviews of a common container.

Remove UISearchBar on tableView click

I have a UISearchBar which is subviewed by another view when a button is pressed. When it loads, it looks like the following (minus the red scribbles):
I would like to have the UISearchBar view be removed from the parent view controller when the tableView (the area with red scribbles) is clicked and is empty (no search has been made yet). I'm having a difficult time figuring out the best way to do this.
I have tried to put a transparent button in that section and add it as a subview to the search bar. However the button is underneath the tabl view area, so when the table view is clicked, the search bar loses focus and the uibutton is only then accessible.
Does anyone know how I can remove the search bar from the parent view controller when the empty table view below it is clicked?
Thanks.
To bring the transparent button up and make it catch all touched first, use [button.parentView bringSubViewToFront:button].
Another approach could be to catch the search bar losing focus (since you say you see that happening), by putting
– (void)searchBarTextDidEndEditing:(UISearchBar*)searchBar
in the search bar delegate, and handling it from there.

Is it possible to put a hidden search bar above a grouped table view?

In OS3.0 a lot of plain table views have an initially hidden search bar that can be accessed by scrolling down to reveal it (e.g. mail, ipod).
Is it possible to do the same thing for a grouped table view?
Background:
I'm using a grouped table view as a static navigation menu (similar to the Things app). The content never changes, it's just a way to choose which view to push next. Above the table view, I have a search bar. I'd like that search bar to be hidden initially, as it doesn't look good and may also be confusing for new users - also because that seems to be the standard now.
Note, the search bar has nothing to do with the datasource of the table view it's in - it's not searching the contents of that table view. It's a search on a remote server. The results are displayed in a new view which is pushed on the stack. The search bar is intended to be just a quick way to get at that functionality.
UITableView inherits from UIScrollView, so set the bounds of the UITableView to move the search bar out of view when the UITableView is about to start displaying.
